Is that it?

My majors aka the exams for the fifth semester are finally over. But that is not what this post about. It is probably about how sometimes simple things are, independent of the fact whether they are or they are not.

After spending nearly five semesters in IIT, I think I know what do I want to do after IIT. And perhaps, I am just confusing myself all over again. But I strongly feel that I want to be somewhere where I can talk a lot, to lots of people (while getting paid handsomely for it as well). I don’t want to be a counselor either, however enticing the field may appear to anyone. For example, my exams are over and I am supposed to enjoy. And since the morning despite feeling so sleepy I am just talking to people, writing mails. I guess I have talked for almost about 80% of my time after the exam.

Last December, I had this urge and there was this idea of a community blog. For I wanted to talk, and as I said to lots of people. What could have been a better way to do that? To talk to you?

This year I got an awesome opportunity to work in USC, Los Angeles for my Decembers. And I was denied my VISA for reasons that I still can not comprehend. It sucks na? Of course it doesn’t. That was just a small part of the story. Probably, life has something better for me. Even if it doesn’t there is no need to worry, I will create something better for myself.

And this time it is the idea of working on an avatar based stranger chat. A social network of strangers with edges of trust between them (Thanks Harsh for making the statement). I somehow very strongly feel that it has the potential to be a great startup. I am talking about the idea, working to see how it goes. I believe not only it is going to be a great experience, I am going to learn a lot of techie stuff. Even if the idea doesn’t end up being worth millions (add dollars to the amount to make it look way more significant) I would definitely end up making up a great team, a great product about which I can feel proud of (no matter what I am going to be one of the most regular users for the same).

So coming back to the topic, is that it?

Nopes.

Think of the following scenario.

My dream job/education/post-undergraduation work :

1. Place where I can talk a lot
2. To lots of people
3. Still being paid handsomely for it
4. Be close to my home (NCR will do)
